you are getting into pretty bad
shape. My little boy said: Papa, 1t is

Inc, there is many IL girl that has quit being

high road to everlasting ruin. Do you want
to know why think so much about my little
children? / will tell you about it. am
little careful about my daughters; do not al
low them TO go to balls and parties aud
such as that. i am trying to make home the
best place and to give them every pleasure
and JOY at home; and when my children get
so they cannot enjoy life except by running
around, then it is about time Tor me to quit
the business. Home ought to be the most
sacred place in the world, and | Will tell you
mothers and fathers right now let your home
be so sacred that child cannot not hold its
head up there if it does wrong. Now listen,
this daughter said father so and so is going to
come off; may l go? Well, | said,
darling do you want to go! and
want to GO but il you do not do not care to

of the bottom of he heart. Some daughters
say, 'Can | go TO so and so? mo, do not

then, my, my, do you know that daughters
especially are good deal like a certain style

saw that very thing in crowd some time
ago. Young lady asked to go to certain
place and the mother said that she should
not go, and the daughter just turned around
and kicked chair clear across the house

mother k-jaw-my, my iGigging. You
may all giggle, but that is just exactly what
it is. aud there amt any slang about it,
either SLACK is good English word and
know Jaw is. Laughter. How sorry L
am for mother who has lost control of her
daughter to the point where she
dare not speak her mind. You
know your daughter will go the
theater or somewhere and you no, more dare
tell her she sha'n't than you would kill her.
Girls listen, you are on the nigh road to
ruin; you are going to overtake this COM
mon city dude in your backward career and
marry him. N.Y. my, my. And your old
ing, too. My daughters are obliged to go
out into society; if / do not put them out
they will die old maids" If you raise your
daughters up right and let them be what they
ought to be. let me tell you you would not
have to push them out at all. Sisters, il had
some daughters like you have got, | be-
lieve would push them; they need it. Girls,
listen. 1t mas reached u point in this nine
teenth century where girls will not have much
to do with a wool-headed boy who wont be
made to part his hair in the middle. Oh these
dudes, you can smell them before you get
within ten feet of them: the finest pertunery
in the market. Whenever you see boy with
perfume on him, you tell him to git. What
does Il boy want with new~mown hay? l
stopped at house where the mother pushed
a daughter into the
ARMS OF A DUDE.
Twelve months after the marriage when we
sat down at the dinner tanle, there came
tripping into the room little, pale shadow
of Il woman, She was introduced as my
daughter, Mrs. So and So, and she got through
eating before any of u.s. After she walked
out the mother said. Brother Jones, that is
our poor, unfortunate daughter; she married
and her husband committed forgery Oh,
nv Lord, how much of that sort of stuff is
gong on. That little dude. Ever see one?
He lust looks like he has been melted and
poured into his pants laughter, ard he parts
his hair in the middle, and parts his name
middle. Laughter renewed. The dude.
Mother, if you push your daughters into So
ciety there is where they will land; in the
arms, safe in the arms, of dude. That's Il
fact, and will tell you where she catches
them, it is in bathrooms. l say to you, my
brother and sister, in all love and kindness,
let your daughters be so raised and so train
them at your home that in all things your
daughters will be 20 the community and to
the world a charming set of girls that
will draw and attract without any of
what we call the pushing force" Now
In conclusion want to say this: Mother |
have said be copsecrated to God; wife, be a
cousecrated Christian; daughter, all | have
said is summed up in the one word-be con-
Secrated Christian and live for God and
eternal life. And now these my astwords in
Minneapolis, maybe forever and maybe only
for short time, cannot tell; but listen to
me-let you and l dedicate our home to God
and live for heaven and eternal life. The sad
news from home to-day, brings the intelli-
